Computational Conformal Geometry
Shing–Tung Yau, Xianfeng David Gu · Medical Entomology and Zoology · 2016
This new volume presents thorough introductions to the theoretical foundations - as well as to the practical algorithms - of computational conformal geometry. These have direct applications to engineering and digital geometric processing, including surface parameterization, surface matching, brain mapping, 3-D face recognition and identification, facial expression and animation, dynamic face tracking, mesh-spline conversion, and more. Computational conformal geometry is an emerging inter-disciplinary field, with applications to algebraic topology, differential geometry and Riemann surface theories applied to geometric modeling, computer graphics, computer vision, medical imaging, visualization, scientific computation, and many other engineering fields.
